Fill a dangerous room with loot worth exactly what the danger deserves

A room with three armed guards and a room with a sleeping rat should not hold the same reward. Giving each room a spending allowance is easy, but filling it naively spends everything on one huge item, or loops while hunting for something small enough. Here is a way that always ends.

Why this works

A reward feels fair when it matches the risk, and a spending limit makes that match exact. Choosing only among what still fits can never overspend, and it needs no endless retrying, so each room ends with a clear, bounded result.

When not to use it

Skip it for rooms that tell a story or hold a key item the player must find, since a budget may leave them empty or full of junk. Place those items by hand and use the budget only for the filler around them.
